Comments Housekeeping
Many of you have expressed to me through email that you're having trouble leaving comments here. Are you primarily WordPress users? I think the problem is here on Blogger but is restricted to WordPress users. I went on the help forums and found this information which confirms that while it's a Blogger problem, if you're a WordPress user and want to leave a comment you should do the following. Any advice? Let me know if it works -- or not.
The problem is OpenID. It simply doesn't work very well. When possible, always use the NAME/URL option. http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/blogspot-blogger-not-accepting-my-wordpress-comments?replies=9

I have never been able to get name/URL to work, and I can only successfully comment on your blog if I am logged in to my Google account.
ReplyDeleteI've always had problems, and even the name/URL rarely works for me and I end up limping away in frustration. Let's see if I can make this one post.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, well, I will seize the opportunity to blame technology and not my only occasional & sporatic time on line or my reluctance to comment on something 6 posts ago, even though it was only from yesterday because you are a beautiful writer, yes, but also very very prolific.
ReplyDeleteName/URL doesn't usually work for me either, but I'll try it this time. Thanks for the tip, Elizabeth. I also appreciate what Lisa says about being logged in to Google. If Name/URL doesn't work maybe that route will.
ReplyDeleteI am one of those wordpress folks having trouble. Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteHave been reading along, but feel weird to not say hello .
Hope all is well with you and yours. xo
